Photo can be anything to do with water, really no limitations on this, if you can think of any possible reason this relates to water, then go for it.

Project 6 will start on 1st sept, so hopefully some water entries will be in before then.

Photo Project 3 "Night"

Photo project 3 took a little longer than planned, a few weeks longer... But with just 2 entrants it wasn't an issue. I took 4 sets of photo's and put 2 up, with the one below being the final choice. Sadly I still have not finalised the photo, and need to "vintage" it a bit more. But with project 4 now started it will be put on the backburner for a while.
